Can we please make it so you can control the Yaw with the RB and LBs haha. I find the game insanely fun except for the plane and helicopter controls... Im ok at it but if they introduced two extra buttons it would make them so much more viable in my opinion! Especially if you could then make it so the left analog, when pressed to the right or left, would allow you to hover sideways left and right. This would allow you to line up shots from the air so much easier! Just food for thought!
This might help you a bit if you're struggling with the chopper controls. It won't get you flying sideways and there should be a separate Yaw control, but i made it as I struggled to work out the best way to use the controls so spent a day in the beta trying to work out the best approach.

Not that difficult. Back on the (left)control stick pulls the plane up. Forward on the (left)control stick pushes the planes nose down. Left on the control stick rolls the plane left. Right on the control stick rolls the plane right. To turn, simply roll the plane left or right and pull the left control stick back, the plane will turn. I agree its not the best control scheme in the world, but just learn it and you'll be fineOriginally Posted by fixer7267 Go to original post
Sorry, but something does need to be done about this. The controls are bad because they are TOO SIMPLE. Honestly it feels like they designed for a damn 2 year old. Having played the likes of GTA, ARMA2/3 and battlefield, these are the worst aircraft controls i have ever used. Is this 2017? or do we simply not have standards anymore?Originally Posted by IIII 47 IIII Go to original post
By all means, keep the simple system for the simple minded, but for the love of god add something more advanced. The fact we are asking for YAW controls, shows how pathetic Ubisoft paris are.Whats even more funny is that we had megathreads and countless threads from the second the closed beta started to now, all asking for the same thing. And only recently has one of the moderators said " i will pass this along".
Not to mention the controls lack any logic when compared to other games with superior flight mechanics and controls.
Oh yeah, and the fact planes dont have yaw is pathetic. like, you should stop making games pathetic.
I dont see the issue with bringing up something that is most definitely relevant to the game. Im by no means saying the game is awful because of this issue, im merely offering my opinion in hopes that they take action to better the game. Yea I can live with the helicopter and plane controls, they arent game breaking per say, but I feel that it would add to the immersiveness of the game. Im obviously still going to play the game and enjoy it with my friends. But saying that someone shouldn't be critical of something is ridiculous. You have to be critical of things, thats how we improve ourselves, and in this case, improve an already fun game. Not the mention, the fact that you state that this is at the top of the list of 'irrelevant' posts being made, by its own right makes it relevant. Obviously its a hot topic that should be addressed. Just because you are fine with something being subpar doesn't mean others have to just sit back and deal with it as well.
At the end of the day, this is a forum. Forums are here to discuss the game, and here we are discussing a feature that should be added to the game. Regardless of if it has been addressed before and buried behind all of the other posts. The point of forums are to voice opinions, and as it seems, there have been a lot of voices concerning the controls. Until we strive for the best we will continue to get average, you have to be persistent.
Why not actually read what the Devs have to say? They specifically reference the forum and they list the vehicle controls as something they are still looking into improve.Originally Posted by TheThylacine Go to original post

I don't think the issue is that it was designed to be for simple people, I think it was designed to be easy to pick up for players who HAVEN'T played ArmA, Battlefield, or GTA. Meaning they should just add in a control option that gives me full control over the helo, or at least similar to how BF4 with the ability to strafe and actual aim my nose down without plummeting towards the earth.
Anyone who doesn't think this is relevant is entitled to that, but it is a huge part of the game. And if the DLC is anything like they advertise, there's going to be more missions that would be nice to engage in with a helicopter, and not just to hover and jump out of.
